Who's In the Network

The Programs of the EPIC-Network

To date, there are over 25+ active programs in the United States and in Israel. In May 2017, EPIC held a conference in Bonn, Germany to help bring the model overseas, hosting representatives from 15 countries spanning Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Central and South America, along with representatives from the United Nations (UN), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the International City Managers Association (ICMA) and ICLEI-Local Governments for Sustainability. An Africa-specific training will take place in November 2017.
